There's a dfa window before the draftBut I assume he'd still have to nominate for the draft to be eligable to be signed as a DFA?

Yeah, I did a search after I posted the question....not easy to find any rules or guidelines around delisted free agency, but I believe you are absolutely correct.There's a dfa window before the draft
Does that mean we can just pick him up for nothing.
People forget he basically didn't have a preseason. Reckon with a big preseason will play senior footy next yearBest I've seen Moir show some of his talent this quarter. He's a keeper.
McMahon is not eligible as a delisted free agent for this year. He’ll need to nominate for the draft and will be available to all clubs.
I would argue that I’d prefer to play McMahon right now in from of Owies and Martin. Yes he’s taller but a third tall forward that can pinch hit in the ruck is the ideal set up allowing McKay to stay forward.We can't keep re-listing them though if the MC has no interest in playing them. Better off helping them finding a club where they have a shot at getting a game.
Is Lord another Fogarty type but with more ability to play through the mid-field.
Could he also spend time as a small pressure forward - in other words is he potentially a better version of Fog ??
Has Binns hit a Carlton player yet
Turns it over too much. Compare him to Cox. If he can kick efficiently then maybe small chance.Mirkov had 45 hit outs and 9 clearances. 13 disposals and 2 tackles. Are we sure he’s not ready. I’d love to have a ruckman that the other team are forced to steal taps off.
We had two picks as well. Staggering we didn't pick him up. He will get picked inside the top 50 in the draft now.I'd really like to know why we didn't pick McMahon up in MSD. Fills a need

Are you 100% sure on this? Unless the rules have changed over the past few year, this doesn't seem to be the case. Geelong signed Stengle without going through the draft back in 2021.McMahon is not eligible as a delisted free agent for this year.

One thing that impresses me about McMahon is he leads really well. Something our forwards don't really do.I think we can sign him as a DFA before draft if we want? If not we could guarantee him an SSP spot
Hard to tell covers the ground wellIs Walter a sneaky chance for drafting?
Are we both his mum now?Moir looks like an entirely different player to 4-5 weeks ago. Just has so much more power in his body.
As a long time doubter of his its great to see him look to be coming good from a couple of rotten years with injury/fitness.
Only in the year you come out of contract, is my understanding.Are you 100% sure on this? Unless the rules have changed over the past few year, this doesn't seem to be the case. Geelong signed Stengle without going through the draft back in 2021.
"Players who have been delisted by their clubs have the freedom to join any rival that offers them a contract during these two periods, avoiding the need to enter the NAB AFL Draft."
Once you're a DFA, you're a free agent for life.

When does the delisted free agency period start?
The dates for the delisted free agency period has been confirmedwww.afl.com.au
Just hope he's more Witts and less Warnock.
We should probably trade Pittonet anyway as O'Keeffe is good to go when fit. Can even play KPF when we're down one.
At this stage, Mirkov is still #3 in that scenario, but if we consider the flexibility of TDK & O'Keeffe that works for our list.
Sadly I think the time to cash in was last year. Recent performances would be killing his trade value.I agree with Jimmie re: Pittonet.
Absolutely should cash him in. I reckon O'Keeffe and Mirkov (now that we can keep on rookie list) is all we need. Still have Young and Lemmy for break glass.

Stengle was delisted by Adelaide in early 2021 and listed by Geelong before the draft later that year.
No, players are now Free Agents for life.Only in the year you come out of contract, is my understanding.

With another two rucks on the list, and McKay and JSOS to consider, not sure it is.That's a real concern
Will come down to the state of his lower legs, for sure. 2 years on a cheap contract shouldn't scare anyone.Sadly I think the time to cash in was last year. Recent performances would be killing his trade value.
Any player delisted by a club (unless they retired or delisted themselves)That applies to Cahill too?
do you know if they can be pre-listed as a rookie - or it has to be to the primary list?Any player delisted by a club (unless they retired or delisted themselves)
